Shawn Rule is a jewelry designer from Detroit, Michigan. He began conceptualizing the idea of “E’lur” as a consumer who bought bracelets but could not find anything that spoke to him from a cultural standpoint. In 2015, Rule created a bracelet collection that was culturally relatable to both he and his peers.  From there, E’lur Wrists was born. The meaning of E’lur goes beyond the material value of jewelry, it distinguishes itself as a staple of cultural excellence and style

Mesha Farrington is the owner designer and creator of unique jewelry at Hearts of Gemstones LLC. Her inspiration comes from watching my mother create beautiful jewelry pieces using natural materials including glass and metals. In addition to using monochromatic, analogous and complimentary color schemes, I use varying textures, shapes and sizes of gemstones, crystals, fossils, geodes and other natural stones.  I utilize many techniques to create my unique pieces including wire wrapping, stringing, fold-forming and forging metals. "I hope you can have as much enjoyment wearing my unique designs as I had creating them."
